A. ELLIS PUBLISHED BY C. A. ELLIS, MANAGER 1541 : : Vladimir De Pachmann The Greatest Pianist Of the 20th Century ON TOUR IN THE UNITED STATES SEASON: 1911-1912 For generations the appearance of new stars on the musical firmament has been announced — then they came with a temporary glitter — soon to fade and to be forgotten. De Pachmann has outlived them all. With each return he won additional resplendence and to-day he is acknowl- edged by the truly artistic public to be the greatest exponent of the piano of the twentieth century. As Arthur Symons, the eminent British critic, says "Pachmann is the Verlaine or Whistler of the Pianoforte the greatest player of the piano now living." Pachmann, as before, uses the BALDWIN PIANO for the expression of his magic art, the instrument of which he himself says " .... It cries when I feel like crying, it sings joyfully when I feel like singing. It responds — like a human being — to every mood. I love the Baldwin Piano." Every lover of the highest type of piano music will, of course, go to hear Pachmann — to revel in the beauty of his music and to marvel at it. It is the beautiful tone quality, the voice which is music itself, and the wonderfully responsive action of the Baldwin Piano, by which Pachmann 's miraculous hands reveal to you the thrill, the terror and the ecstasy of a beauty which you had never dreamed was hidden in sounds.

  • Lilli Lehmanns, Die Gleichermaßen Konstanzes Martern-Arie Wie Isoldes Liebestod Gerecht Wird
    Lehmann, Lilli gendlich-dramatische Fach – behutsam aufbauend – das dramatische Fach erobert. Sie hat diesen Weg nicht nur ihren Schülerinnen und Schülern vermittelt, sondern ih- re Methode darüber hinaus durch ihr Buch „Meine Ges- angskunst“ auch an künftige Generationen von Studie- renden weitergegeben. Ihre Schallplatten, obwohl erst in fortgeschrittenem Alter aufgenommen, sind ein eind- rucksvolles Dokument der Stilsicherheit Lilli Lehmanns, die gleichermaßen Konstanzes Martern-Arie wie Isoldes Liebestod gerecht wird. In ihren Aufnahmen ist eine Sän- gerin dokumentiert, die noch unter der Stabführung und Anleitung etwa von Verdi, Wagner, Mahler und von Bü- lows gesungen hat. Ihr akustisches Erbe baut eine Brü- cke aus dem mittleren 19. Jahrhundert und seinen Tradi- tionen hinüber in das frühe 20. Jahrhundert. Orte und Länder Geboren in Würzburg, Kindheit und Ausbildung, sowie Debüt in Prag; danach Engagements in Danzig und Leip- zig, ab 1870 Königliches Opernhaus Berlin; Teilnahme an den ersten Bayreuther Festspielen 1876; Gastspiele in London und Wien; ab 1885 Metropolitan Opera New York; mehrere Tourneen durch die USA; von 1901 bis 1910 Initiatorin und Leiterin der Salzburger Mozartfest- Lilli Lehmann als Isolde spiele; Lebensabend und Tod in Berlin Grunewald.
